Masters Prediction

Since I'm going on vacation for the next 10 days, I thought I'd make my Masters prediction now.

No Three Putts says Ernie Els will win this year.

A couple of other predictions: Tiger Woods will miss the cut. Phil Mickelson will wear a bra so his man boobs won't bounce so much.

CaddyClaw

How many times have you driven your cart up the middle of a fairway when you see a headcover just sitting there? I'd say every other round I find a headcover of some poor bastard who thought it was on his club. I recently found a golf product that makes sense and will alleviate the hassle of keeping a tab on your headcovers when you should be focusing on golf and only golf.

The CaddyClaw is simple to use and securely attaches your headcovers to your golf bag. If you've ever lost a headcover or know someone who has, I'd suggest you check out and buy the CaddyClaw.

From personal experience I know that it sucks when you have one odd ball headcover on your bag.

Vijay the Choker

The last two weeks Vijay has had major chokes to lose tournaments. At the Honda Classic he missed a very short putt to lose the playoff. This week at Bay Hill he dumped it into the water to lose the tourney.

The good news is his second place finish at Bay Hill was enough to bump Tiger out of the number one spot.

Vijay is finally showing us that he's human and not a machine.

Strike the pose Vijay.

Oh how we change...

As we age, our priorities change....

The other day I came home and was greeted by my wife, dressed only in very sexy underwear and holding a couple of short velvet ropes.

"Tie me up," she purred, "and you can do anything you want."

So, I tied her up and went golfing.

Jogging, working out & golf. WTF?

About 6 weeks ago Mrs. No Three Putts dragged me to the gym to join her for a workout. So I reluctantly went and got a week long pass to try it out. Little did I know, I'd become hooked on fitness. It's unreal. I now jog in the morning at 6:00 AM before work, then when I get home in the evening from work I go to the gym and workout.

Heck I even ran in a 5K race after three weeks of training. Race Results - I'm in the 35-39 age group.

Why do I mention this recent fitness bug I've gotten? Because I've played golf 3 times since I started and I have not played better golf in over 10 years. I am trying to figure this all out. I start running, working out and even eating healthy (something I have never done in my life) now all of a sudden I can play golf again. Does getting my lazy ass into shape really equate to better golf? I'm not sure. I think psychologically it has helped me, which in turn has improved the mental part of my golf game.

I get out there now and I do very little thinking. The less thinking I do on the golf course the better. I played today under fairly windy conditions out at Emerald Dunes in West Palm Beach and shot a very solid 81. And to think I could have been at the office today.

A day of golf, instead of work, is like a sore pecker, you can't beat it.
